Now bare with me here. Its 11:28 and I've been studying for a math test tomorrow after dealing with a College level government test today so my thoughts probably aren't all with me at the moment.

I just remembered that a few days ago, one of my trivia was rejected because there was a source issue. At the time I didn't really think about it and deleted it pretty quickly after because I didn't want to deal with it at the time. Problem is, I forgot what it was about already so I don't really know what to readdress since the message and the submission are gone now.

Anyway, my idea would be that instead of a submission disappearing after being rejected, a notification be sent that further revision would be required be sent instead.

Since we can edit our trivia now, it'd be a simple matter of looking at it and trying to readdress any issues. Maybe have the revision notes tied to the submission itself so people going through their submissions would see the issue even if they had already deleted a message.
I understand where you're coming from but this would make managing pending submissions even harder than it is already. If the only way to remove a rejected submission from the queue was to have the submitter cancel it, most submissions would sit there forever and permanently clutter an already long list.
Fair enough. Maybe have a queue time, or something of the like where after a certain amount of days without alteration after a comment is made, a submission is removed from the list? I don't know if that's possible as my only real experience with this stuff is basic bi-deci-hexi math and code.org.
